From Superintendent Dr. Jill Geiser: We have investigated a possible bomb threat that was posted to Snapchat and brought to our attention by students Thursday am, 10/3. Based on the investigation by administration and the local police, in consultation with the state police, it is our conclusion that this was not posted by a BHS or BMS student. The Mass State police have indicated that the threat fits the profile of generic threats that they have been receiving across Massachusetts. There is no threat, and staff and students are safe to be in school. As a precautionary measure, the Belmont police will be walking the building with the custodial staff, and will maintain a presence throughout the day.

To Belmont Public Schools Families from Superintendent Jill Geiser This morning, Monday, 09/23/2024 the BPS leadership became aware of a bomb threat to at Belmont Middle-High School. It is with great relief to report everyone is safe. Administration immediately notified both the Belmont Police Department and Superintendent's Office per BPS protocols. In an abundance of caution the entire BMHS building was evacuated and an early dismissal for both Belmont High School and Belmont Middle School occurred. No other schools were impacted. Sincere appreciation to the Belmont Police and Fire Departments for their support in keeping all students and staff safe. Evening activities will resume and school will be in regular session tomorrow with additional police presence.
